There are a number of different recycling steps that allow materials to be used more than once.All kinds of materials can be recycled.

There is almost a “recycle” rubbish can around. Be sure to drop your used aluminum cans(铝合金罐) and plastic bottles there. At home, be sure to put paper things like the newspapers, paper boxes, and homework pages into the recycle box.Plastics are usually marked with an identification code(识别码) that shows a recycling symbol and a number from 1 to 7. This shows that the type of chemicals, or materials, is used in making the plastic. Used paper can be recycled around seven times.It is high time we set up a recycle station in every street, across the city and the country, so the cleaners can transport the rubbish conveniently.

九年级英语专题-阅读理解强化训练试题(1)

九年级专项练习—阅读理解(1)ALast year, I did not like my English class. Every class was like a bad dream. The teacher spoke so quickly that I did not understand her most of the time. I was afraid to ask questions because of my poor pronunciation. I just hid behind my textbook and never said anything.Then one day I watched an English movie called Toy Story. I fell in love with this exciting and funny movie! So I began to watch other English movies, too. Although I could not understand everything the characters said, their body language and the expressions on their faces helped me to get the meaning by listening for just the key words. My pronunciation improved as well by listening to the conversations in English movies. I discovered that listening to something intere sting is the secret to language learning. I also learned useful sentences like “It’s a piece of cake” or “It serves you right”. I did not understand these sentences at first. But because I wanted to understand the story, I looked them up in a dictionary.Now I really enjoy my English class. I want to learn new words and more grammar so that I can have a better understanding of English movies.1. Someone who ______ will most possibly be interested in this passage.A. wants to study abroadB. wants to watch English moviesC. is poor in his English studyD. is learning to use an English dictionary2. What is the best way to learn English well according to the writer?A. Listening to something interesting.B. Remembering many useful sentences.C. Asking teachers questions in class.D. Learning more words and grammar.3. Which is the best title for this passage?A. The ways to learn English wellB. How I learned to learn EnglishC. Why I love watching English moviesD. The secret to improve pronunciationBWhen I was little, I loved picture books. Even if my parents didn’t have time to read the story for me, I could look at the pictures and follow the story. Then I moved on to comic books with their exciting stories of superheroes and, later, to novels. I forgot all about picture books and how wonderful they are.Last week though, my friend gave me A Fish with a Smile by Jimmy Liao, a writer who makes picture books for older readers. I found the story about a thoughtful man and his pet fish very meaningful. I also thought the pictures were beautiful. Now I’ve become a fan of picture books all over again.Jimmy Liao is one of Asia’s most famous picture book writers and has had best-sellers at home and abroad. I just finished reading one of his most popular books, Turn left, Turn right. The book is about a man and a woman who meet by chance in a park. The woman scribbles down her phone number, but the rain washes it away and they never find each other again. The story touches your heart because the two characters never realize that they are neighbors.Jimmy Liao’s pictures are often funny and cute. He included a rabbit in his book, Secrets in the Woods and the rabbits has re-appeared in his books ever since, partly because readers liked it so much. However, his stories can also be serious. They show what it’s like to feel alone in the city, fear(恐惧) of losing your job or someone you love.I think this is why Jimmy Liao’s career has been so popular.4. According to Paragraph 1, the writer ______.A. used to like comic booksB. found books with no pictures boringC. does not like reading novelsD. thinks picture books are for children5. According to the passage, Turn left, turn right can be described a(an) ______ story.A. funnyB. lovingC. boringD. exciting6. The underlined word “scribbles” in Paragraph 3 is probably close to ______.A. writesB. turnsC. looksD. speaks7. According to the passage, the topics of Liao’s work are mentioned except ______.A. fearB. lonelinessC. funD. courageCHave you ever noticed that aside from the furniture and decoration, many people’s homes seem almost the same? Well, some people have had enough of that and prefer to live in homes that are being the only one of its kind.Some people want homes that are environmentally friendly. Earthships, for example, are made from mud(泥) and materials that would be bottles. Many use wind or the energy from the sun, collect and recycle water, and have a greenhouse in which to grow food. The Phooenix Earthship in the US is a place which can be used as a holiday accommodation, so if you want to try it out, you can.Shipping containers(集装箱) are now being reused to make another kind of environmentally friendly home. They can be used for a small holiday house in the country or connected to make coffee blocks, such as those at Container City in London, England.Other people are interested in homes that look different, like the Steel(钢铁) House in Texas, USA. As you can tell by its name, it is made out of steel. The designer, Robert Bruno, makes it look like cross between a machine and an animal.Especially in crowded areas like Hong Kang, many people want a home that makes the most of space. Artist Gray Chang has achieved this. He found a clever way of using walls which can be moved and fold-down(折叠) items like tables and a bed to change his tiny flat into a home with twenty-four possible rooms.Seeing all of these examples of imaginative homes, what would you like to do to make your own home as a special place to live?8. Earthships are made from ______.A. old shipsB. shipping containersC. recycled materialsD. moving walls9. Gray Chang changed his room because he______.A. wanted more roomsB. thought it was crowdedC. had too much furnitureD. found a way to move walls10. All of the homes mentioned in the article are _____ in common.A. expensive to buildB. strange-lookingC. good for the environmentD. unusual places to live11. The writer explains “the homes that are being the only one of its kind” by _____.A. describing a planB. telling storiesC. using examplesD. following time orderDShe was maybe six years old, smiling in a white dress. She walked up to my son and planted herself in front of his wheelchair(轮椅). And then, without taking her eyes from his face, she said,“I feel sorry for him.”I felt it more than I heard it. Deep in my stomach, where I keep all my sadness, I felt it like a kick in the ribs(肋骨).Children ask all kinds of questions about my son. “Why is he in that?”“Why can’t he walk?” “What’s wrong with him?” But questions are easy. For children, questions always have answers.“I feel sorry for him” is not a question. It is a statement of fact. I know there are many people who feel the same. Many people who see my son, they feel sorry. They feel sad. But adults know how to hide. We know what not to say. This little girl was a leak(漏洞) in the system, which tells me my son’s wheelchair is “very sad”, tells me he is a “poor thing”, prefers to see people like my son as recipients of charity(慈善救助对象), rather than seeing them as neighbors, classmates, teachers, and friends.So I stood there and I realized I am very small. I am only one person.Then last week, sitting by the pool with my husband and my little boy, I heard it again. This time it’s from a teen, maybe 19-year-old. He had seen us there a few times. Today he had a girl with him. “Something’s wrong with that kid,” he whispered to her, “Did you see his back? He can’t walk. So sad…” I felt it more than I heard it. And _________. Her agreement.“Nothing sad about it,” she said, looking at my son with so much kindness. “My brother wa s in the Special Olympics. That kid is cute.”I closed my eyes to keep from crying. I wanted to hug her. I wanted to tell her how lovely she is. More than anything, I wanted to thank her for reminding me that I am not the only one who sees my son for who he is. I am only one person, but I am not alone.12. What happened to the writer’s son?A. He fell off the tree.B. He couldn’t walk.C. He had a car accident.D. He wasn’t able to talk.13. How did the writer feel when she heard what the little girl said?A. Sorry.B. Boring.C. Thankful.D. Hopeless.14. Which of the following is the best expression to fill in the blank in the passage?A. she looked at my son with kindness.B. she seemed she knew me quite well.C. I put my head down waiting for her reply.D. I didn’t know how to answer her question.15. After hearing the young lady’s words, the writer ______.A. felt few people could understand her and her sonB. believed some people could see her son as a normal oneC. thought the girl’s brother had the same disease like her sonD. thanked for what the young lady had done for her and her son答案：1.

When Driscoll was 14, she fell off her bike and injured her hip（臀部）. After that she had to use a wheelchair.At first Driscoll feared that being in a wheelchair meant giving up sports. Then a friend talked her into trying wheelchair soccer. Driscoll loved it. By the time she went to college, Driscoll was a good athlete in wheelchair sports such as soccer, tennis, and ice hockey.Driscoll’s college coach told her to try racing marathon distances — more than 26 miles. Driscoll won the 1990 Boston Marathon on her first try. In 1994 she lowered her time by almost ten minutes. To do this, Driscoll sometimes reached downhill speeds of nearly 50 miles per hour!Years of walking with crutches gave Driscoll a strong upper body. She trains hard six days a week. In the gym Driscoll lifts 200-pound weights, almost twice her body weight.Outdoors, Driscoll races along in her chair for 25 miles at a stretch. She trains for racing up hills by having three people hold on to the back of her chair while she climbs the hill.Driscoll also uses a special wheelchair that weighs only 17 pounds. This helps her reach racing speeds of more than 16 miles an hour.Today Jean Driscoll is still a top racer. She also travels around the country giving speeches to motivate kids to do their best. You can guess what she tells her audiences: “Dream bi g and work hard.”( )1. What is the MAIN IDEA of this passage?A.

I'm not going to say luck, talent, and Circumstances（境遇）don't Come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are Born with great intelligence, and that's just the reality of how life is.However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then make it more practical. And, vesides that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10, 000 hours studying and practising. To vecome great at certain things, it'll require even more time, which most people won't put in.This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don't enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you give up before you ever become good at it.When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there. It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were Born with some unusual talent, But thinking that way does you no good, andthere's a huge Chance that you're wrong anyway.No matter what you do, if you want to Become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction（入迷）, and over a long period of time. If you're not willing to put in the time and work, don't expect to receive any rewards. Hard work won't guarantee（保证）you the level of success you may want, But it will guarantee that you will Become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.（1）Paragraph 1 mainly talks about __________.A. the reasons for successB. the meaning of successC. the standards of successD. the importance of success（2）The underlined word" that" refers to __________.A. putting in more timeB. succeeding in lifeC.

To describe that successful people like to show their great skills.5．阅读理解We often hear stories of animals rescuing people. But now someone has managed to return the favor.The event took place on a snowy January morning. Thomas Smith was walking his dog, Jack, in the park. "As I was walking, I just saw Jack running into the ice towards the ducks in the middle, and then he fell into the water and couldn't climb out," said Smith. He realized he had no choice but to try and save his dog. "Someone else told me the lake was only one meter deep, but it was at least twice that. I had to break my way through the 6-cm ice. Finally, I got Jack by the neck and pulled him out. I didn't think I had ever felt so cold by the time we got back to dry land. And when we got there, everyone was asking if Jack was okay—no one was particularly worried about me!"A neighbor, Julie Brown, saw it all happen. "The dog went onto an icy lake. All of a sudden, it started to go under. There were crowds of people around, and they were all shouting and screaming. Before I knew it, the owner （Smith） was in the water forcing his way through the ice, I couldn't imagine how cold it was. Everyone was very nervous, but he was as cool as acucumber-he just crawled back out, put the dog on its lead, and went home.Many regard him as a hero, but Mr. Smith is quite laid—back about it, "Most dog owners are the same as me.

Every day they are very busy trying to make money for my schooling.One day, my mother was sewing a quilt（缝被子）.I silently sat beside her."Mom, is there love between you and Dad? "I asked in a very low voice.With surprise in her eyes, she stopped her work for a while. Then she said, "Susan, look at this thread（线）.It can hardly be seen, but it's really there. It makes the quilt strong. If life is a quilt, love should be a thread. Love is inside."I couldn't understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month.After they were back, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road every day. They were so kind to each other and it seemed they were the happiest couple.After two months my father still couldn't walk by himself."Dad, how are you feeling now? "I asked him one day."Susan, don't worry about me, "he said. "I just like walking with your mom. I like this kind of life."

They stood in a circle, with 30 more stones lying on top to form a ring of rocks. There was also an inner circle built with similar stones. The stones set up in a trilithon（巨石牌坊） pattern.A trilithon is made of two stone pillars with a stab of rock laid across the top. The stones weigh up to 20 tons each. People wonder how the huge rocks were placed that way.Historians agree that Stonehenge was built in three different stages. The first stage took place about 5, 000 years ago. At that time, a large circular earth wall was made. Historians believe the wall was dug and cut with tools made form anglers（鹿角）of red deer. The earth wall was about 98m in diameter（直径） a 5-meter-tall stone was placed near the center. Then, they had to transport the large blue stones （up to 4 tons） 384 kilometers to Stonehenge. Experts think they might be moved across ice and snow. The ground in winter in this area is usually full of ice and snow, making it easier to move the rocks. The next task was to stand the stones up. The most difficult task was putting the top stones in place. Each one of these tasks took a lot of planning and a lot of strength, but the workers of Stonehenge were excellent builders.Why was the monument built? Some scientists think it's a burial ground. There are over 400 graves （burial sits） nearby. A man was buried with two gold earrings which are the oldest gold ever found in Britain （dated to 2470 BC）. Others think Stonehenge was built by early astronomers. Scientists believe that when a person stands in the center of the monument, the changing of seasons can be seen. Certain stones mark the location of the rising and setting moon in midwinter. Other stones mark the rising and setting sun in midsummer. The ancient people held religious ceremonies on these days. These ceremonies probably asked the gods to bring good weather for crops and to protect the people from bad weather.Stonehenge is an engineering success. Thousands of years later, it still stands. As a calendar,Stonehenge is very accurate. It shows that early people had a deep understanding of the movements to the sun and the moon. They didn't have machines or computers, but Stonehenge shows people could do many things using only their muscles and their brains.（1）he first building stage of Stonehenge was ________.A. to dig and cut the earth wallB. to move the blue stones across the iceC. to stand the stones upD. to put the top stones in place（2）Which evidence（证据） is given to support the idea that Stonehenge was a burial ground?A. Stonehenge was made of stones.B. It is a place for celebrating ceremonies.C. The passing of seasons can be seen there.D. Two gold earrings were found in a grave.（3）The underlined word "accurate" in the last paragraph probably means "________".A. correctB. strangeC. hugeD. heavy（4）Stonehenge was probably NOT originally built for ________.A. touristsB. religious reasonsC. a burial groundD. telling the seasons8．阅读理解Our monthly talks start at 19: 30 on the first Thursday of each month except August.

If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap （代沟）.Don't argue （争辩） with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.Try to reach a compromise （和解）. Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect （尊敬） to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why.

I’m graduating and I thank you both for all your help during these 15 years. I still remember when you used to say, “You can be who you want to be.” I’m so glad you are my parents, especially when I hear kids say they don’t have a good relationship with theirs. I’m glad that you support me when I decide to do anything. You always try to help, and that’s important to me.Dad, I remember when you first took me fishing. I loved going even though I never caught anything. I also remember when you would get angry with me. I realize you were only trying to show me the right way. When I would cry, you would always be there to try to cheer me up. That’s what I call a good, loving, caring dad. Sometimes you and Mom don’t agree with me, but you are there by my side in anything that I do, and that’s why I love you both so much.Mom, I enjoy going out with you and having our happy time every Friday night, and I hope that never changes. I love telling you everything. The best part about you is that you listen. I’m glad we do a lot together. You love to have fun, and Dad does, too. You always give me your opinion and I listen.Thank you for bringing me up.49.

What makes Allison and her mother good friends?A. Cheering up each other.B. Listening to each other and having fun together.C. Encouraging each other.D. Going out together.CSocial media (社交媒体) is very important in our lives. We check our social media accounts (账户)such as WeChat and Weibo almost every day. Now people like posting pictures just for the purpose of getting others’ attention, no matter whether these pictures are good or not. Last week, I was bored with these types of posts, so I decided to stop using social media for one week.After not using social media for a week, I can honestly say that everything has changed. Before last week, I used to check Weibo more than ten times a day, as well as of my other social accounts, and I couldn’t understand why I did that. Now I check Weibo much less.People are so crazy about posting pictures that have no meaning to them just for the purpose of posting something online. Whenever I look at Moments, all of the comments ( 评论) on pictures are the same. People depend on how many “likes” they get on what they post as an achievement. I just want to say, “None of it matters!” As I start to fully understand this now, I wonder why I have social media if it troubles me so much. But then I realize I indeed post meaningful things that my friends enjoy, and to me, that’s more important than getting “likes” on a picture.Maybe as a society, we are using social media wrongly. I think we sometimes forget that social media helps us keep in touch with people who are far away from us. I think it’s a beautiful thing that I am able to continue using Weibo and feel connected with people that I don’t have the chance of seeing every day any more.52. Why did the writer decide to stop using social media for one week?A.Because she had very few likes.B.Because she had got tired of the posts on it.C.Because she didn’t have any good pictures to post on.D.Because there was something wrong with her computer.53. What do we know about the writer from Paragraph 2?E.She didn’t know how to use Weibo.F.She didn’t like posting things on Weibo.G.She used to check her social media accounts a lot.H.She has given up using social media forever.54. According to the writer, people should use social media to __________.A. receive important commentsB. learn about other people’s livesC. get “likes” from their friendsD. connect with faraway friends and family55. What is the main idea of the passage?A. People should not use social media.B. Technology is changing our lives today.C. Comments on social media are interesting.D. Social media should be used for good purposes.答案：46-48 BBC49-51 AAB52-55 BCDD四、阅读理解阅读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后在每小题所给的四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并将答案写在答题卷上。

九年级英语复习阅读理解、情景交际、书面表达专项练习题试题

轧东卡州北占业市传业学校2006年九年级英语复习阅读理解、情景交际、书面表达专项练习题一、阅读理解：〔一〕When you are learning English, you find it not clever to translate an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence “How do you do?〞 for example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation? It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.Languages don’t just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It’s important to master the rules for word order in the study of English, too. If the speakers put words in a wrong order , the listener can’t understand the speaker’s sentence easily. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change between the two pairs of sentences:“She only likes apples.〞“Only she likes apples.〞“I have seen the film already.〞“I have already seen the film.〞When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit of the language and use it as the English speaker does.( )1.From the passage we know that when we are learning English.A.we shouldn’t put every word into our languageB.we should look up every word it the dictionaryC.we need to put every word into our own language( )2.We can learn from the passage that .A.if the order of words is different, the meaning of the sentence must be differentB.the order of words can never change the meaning of an English sentenceC.sometimes different order of words has a different meaning( )3. “She only likes apples.〞 .A.is the same as “Only she likes apples.〞B.is different from “Only she likes apples.〞C.means “She likes fruit except apples.〞( )4.

He must change his reading speed to fit his purpose and the material he is reading, just as a driver does fit the road situation. A good reader may be able to read a thousand words per minute (WPM) , but he won’t use that speed for everything he reads.A good reader doing research reading in the library may read at the speed of 1,000 words per minute as he looks for materials for a report. But once he finds something that is useful to him, he may need to slow down to 100 WPM . A good reader may read newspaper and magazine articles at 600 WPM . But it may take him 150 WPM to read his science or maths text . Just as a driver has a wide change of speed , so has a good reader .( )1.According to the writer , good readers can .A. read at 1,000 WPMB.spend more time readingC.change the speed as needed ( )2.The passage tells us that the speed of reading depends on .a.the number of booksb.the purpose of readingc.the time when you’re readingd.the material that you’re readinge.the place where you’re readingA. a and bB.b and dC. b , c and d( )3.A good reader may use the highest speed of reading when .A.he is trying to find materials for his reportB.he is trying to work out a math problemC.he reads the material most useful to him( )4.The passage suggests that a good driver should .A.be able to driver at a high speedB.be good at driving on a country roadC.be good at changing driving speed( )5.This passage is mainly about .A.the importance of having different reading speedB.the relation〔关系〕between reading and driving speedC.the difference between driving and reading〔二〕 C B A C A〔三〕Captain Good FellowDo your children enjoy interesting stories, funny games, and exciting dances ?

There we felt sure that we would find a bed for the night . Darkness fell along the narrow road to the hill. As we climbed higher, it became colder and rain began to fall. It was difficult at times to see the road, so I asked my friend John to drive slowly.Now we traveled for about 20miles but we could not find the town. We were beginning to feel worried. Then the car stopped. We found we were out of petrol, so we decided to spend the night in the car.After eating some bread, I tried to go to sleep at once, but John, a poor sleeper, got out of the car after a few minutes and went for a walk up the hill. Soon he came running back. From the top of the hill he had seen the lights of the town in the valley below. We at once tried to push car to the top of the hill. In less than an hour we were in the town, and we found a hotel there easily.1. The car stopped because___________.A. they had traveled more than 20 milesB. it was broken.C. there was no petrol left.2.

John ______________.A. was a poor man.B. couldn’t sleep wellC. didn’t like to sleep in the carD. knew the town wellC A A C B〔五〕“Cool〞 is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings. “Cool〞 can be used to express feelings of interest in almost everything.When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say. “It’s cool.〞 You may think,“He’s so cool,〞when you see your favourite football player.We all maximize(扩大)the meaning of “cool〞. You can use it instead of many words, such as “new〞 or“surprising〞.Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used.A teacher asked her student to write about the waterfall(瀑布) they had visited. On the student’s paper was just the one sentence,“It’s so cool.〞Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity(缺乏)of words. Without “cool〞, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility(可信性).Can you think of many other words that make your life as colorful as the word “cool〞? I can. And I think theyare also very cool.1.We know that the word “cool〞 has had ________.A. only one meaningB. no meaningC. many different meanings2.In the passage, the word “express〞 means “_______〞.A. seeB. showC. know3.If you are ________ something, you may say,“It’s cool.〞A. interested inB. angry aboutC. worried about4.The writer takes an example to show he is ________ the way the word is used.A. pleased withB. strange toC. worried about5.In the passage, the writer suggests(暗示)that the word “cool〞___________.A. can be used instead of many wordsB. usually means something interestingC. can make your life colorfulC B A A C〔六〕Last week, 169 Junior 1 students at No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang took their first no-teacher exam. After the teacher handed out the exam paper, he left the room and never came back. A student collected in the papers when the exam ended."That test was not only a test of knowledge, but also a test of moral (道德). We wanted to show students how important honesty is," said Cai Wenguo , the school's headmaster. The school says no cheating (HY)happened in the test. Next year, it wants 80% of its exams to be without teachers. But students have different ideas."I was happy and excited during the exam because my teachers trusted (信任) me," said Lang Yudan, a 13-year-old girl in Class 11."Schools must trust students a lot not to use invigilators (监考人). But I think it is too early. Some students will cheat if there are no invigilators. And the students will not be able to ask for help when needed, 99 said Hua Sha."I don' t like having invigilators in exams. When they walk around the classroom, they make me nervous. I would get higher marks without them in the room because I would feel more relaxed," Liu Qingxi said."I think it's very important to have invigilators in exams. Many students want to check their answers with each other after they have finished papers. And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens. They may make me nervous, but I still think we need them," Shangguan Yuan said.Not using invigilators may be a good idea. But before using it, schools must tell students the importance of honesty and try to find ways to solve something unusual in exams.( ) 1. The passage mainly talks about ______________.A. how to pass an examB. how to make students honestC. whether invigilators are needed in exams( ) 2. No. 35 Middle School of Shenyang held a no-teacher exam to _________.A. let the students have a good restB. teach the students in a better wayC. help all the students pass the examD. find whether the students were honest( ) 3 From what the students have said, we know _____________A. invigilators really help them a lotB. not all of them agree with the headmasterC. something unusual never happens in exams( ) 4. What does Hua Sha think about no-teacher exams?A. It's a good idea to have no-teacher exams but something must be done first.B. If there are no invigilators, the students will certainly get lower marks.C. Exams without invigilators will never be held since students are not honest.( ) 5. In the sentence "And they can also keep the classroom in order when something unusual happens" "they" refers to (指)_____________.A. studentsB. headmastersC. invigilatorsC B B A C〔七〕Do you wish you had a magic gourd (葫芦), to help you get everything you want?You may think twice and say "no" after you watch the planned Disney film "The Secret of the Magic Gourd"!It's the first project Disney will co-produce in China. Based on (依据) a famous Chinese tale, the film is expected to open next year.In the story, Wang Bao is a lively and imaginative young boy. He dreams of having something magic to keep him out of trouble at school and in his everyday life.One day, he finds a real Magic Gourd. The Gourd helps him realize everything he needs or wants to do.

This time the teacher finds out, and Wang's in big trouble.The gourd brings chaos (混乱) to Wang's life, at school and in his neighbourhood.

Some stores offer many dolls, stuffed animals (填充动物玩具) and computer games. You can play with them to see if you like them - there are people to show you how things work.People try to get to the shops early, to buy presents before they sell out. In the week before Christmas, shops stay open late. Some stores open their doors at 9 am and close them at 9 pm, not 9 am until 0 pm as normal.

People from poor countries will meet with those from richer countries in Hong Kong this week to study the question. The meeting, the Sixth World Trade Organization (WTO) Ministerial Conference (世界贸易组织第六次部长级会议), will be held from December 13 to 18.Poor countries say that the WTO's international trade rules are not fair. The rules allow rich countries, like the US and those of the EU, to give money, or subsidies (贴), to their farmers. With the subsidies, farmers are able to sell their crops at lower prices.As a result, world prices go down. Farmers in poor countries that don't have subsidies get less money and even lose their livelihoods.Since China joined the WTO in 2001, for example, lots of subsidized US cotton (棉花) has been sold in the country. Cotton prices fell from about 6 yuan to less than 3 yuan per kg in 2001 and 2002.Every year, rich countries support their farmers with more than US$300 billion. During the coming Hong Kong meeting, poorer nations will ask the rich nations to get rid of the subsidies.Zhang Xiangchen, a senior official from China's Ministry of Commerce (商务部), said China believes that rich countries should end their subsidies by 2021.1. What problem will the Hong Kong meeting try to solve?A. Air pollution.B. International trade.C. Agricultural modernization.2. Who might the meeting benefit (有利于)?A. Farmers in rich countries.B. Only farmers in China.C. Farmers in poorer countries..3. Why are the WTO's international trade rules considered unfair?A. Because they allow rich countries to support their farmers and thus bring down the prices of agricultural products.B. Because they don't allow poor countries to give money to their farmers.C. Because they set low prices for agricultural products all over the world.4. According to the official, China believes _____.A. rich countries will never stop supporting their farmersB. rich countries should stop giving money to their farmers in a few yearsC. rich countries don't need to stop supporting their farmers5. It can be inferred from the story that _____.A. farmers in poorer countries are losing money .B. international rules are never fair for poor countriesC. there's too much cotton in the world nowB C A B A〔十〕First published in 1888, "A Little Princess" is still an enduring (持久的) classic. Today, the story of eight-year-old Sara Crewe continues to charm (具有吸引力) and entertain (使娱乐) readers.Sara finds herself lonely and friendless at Miss Minchin's School for Young Ladies in 19th century London. She is sent to the school when her wealthy father, Captain Crewe, has to return to India.At first, some people feel jealous (嫉妒) of the rich young woman, then she begins to make friends. Her new friends call her Princess Sara. They come to her beautiful room to hear Sara tell them stories.But Miss Minchin, who owns the school, just pretends to like Sara.

It was not made from silk. It was in fact different trading routes(路线) that began in Ancient times.It was thought that the Silk Road began when King David was the ruler of the Israelites (以色列). It was also near the time when the ancient Japanese began growing rice. So the Silk Road was really old. In ancient times, some people began to explore（探索）the land around them. They found other people living in other areas. These people were different to their cultures. They ate different foods and had different products. People began to trade products for things they wanted and silk materials were traded especially. They were very expensive. It is thought that this trade gave the Silk Road its name.Traders usually travelled for a long time. They were away from their homes and families for many days. They did not have cars and telephones. They walked with camels and horses. The traders had to climb mountains and cross deserts. There were wild animals which could attack them. Robbers stole their goods. Sometimes the weather was very awful. Yet, still the traders continued with their business.This trading system from those ancient times affects the way we all eat in our different countries today. It took many years for the different crops(农作物) to be traded across the world. Seeds (种子) were taken from one area to another. The people had to learn how to grow new crops. They had to learn how to use the new food to make food they could enjoy. For example, in the West,wheat was used to make bread. When wheat reached China, it was used to make noodles and dumplings.If the traders weren’t so brave, our food might be very different to what we know now.12.
